Ubi Hub feature is a great new feature that we added that essentially turns your Ubi One to an Apple TV or Chromecast or Miracast with interactivity. With just one click, you can wirelessly project individual team member’s laptops to any touch screen and interact with the content directly on Ubi One. You can then together create and share.

Here is how you set it up.

Installing Software

Ubi One already comes bundled with the Ubi Hub server app.

On the lap top ( let us call it Ubi Hub client ) that you want to cast to Ubu Hub, you can download the free UbiHubClient application.

Connecting to Network

Once you have done this make sure that both PC and Ubi One are connected to the same wifi / network. For Ubi Hub to work, there is no need to have internet connection.

Start Ubi Hub Server

Once Ubi app is running on Ubi One, click on your Ubi menu icon.You will see a Ubi Hub icon there. Click on it.

In the window that pops up, choose the option, Use as "Ubi Hub". You can remember this choice for future.

You will now be taken to a window, where you will see the IP address of this Ubi Hub server.

Your Ubi Hub server is now ready. You just need to wait for the client to connect now.

You will now see the content of your client laptop on the server. Please note that you will be locked out of the client PC now for security reason. You will be able to access the client PC only via Ubi One. You can unlock the client PC anytime, if needed, but that will disconnect the client from Ubi Hub server.

You can control the client PC just like you are connected directly to it. You can also copy-paste content including files between the two machines. Anytime you want to close the connection, you can click on the disconnect button.
